In early November the city’s morning papers are buzzing with reports of a baffling series of incidents at the Sloan Street Hospital. A gravely wounded stranger is brought in, only to be visited by two enigmatic gentlemen who claim to be relatives, while a pair of private detectives swoop in and arrest them in the lobby. As the victims later appear unconscious under inexplicable circumstances, the hospital’s own doctors are left scratching their heads.
The mystery draws the attention of a seasoned sleuth, who teams up with a renowned French psychiatrist to probe the strange “pseudo‑deaths” and the tangled web of deceit surrounding a missing Miss Bispham, a shady gang known as Big Billy and Bittere Pil, and a series of seemingly impossible arrests. Every clue deepens the puzzle, hinting at hidden forces manipulating the players from the shadows. Listeners are invited to follow the investigation as the case spirals toward a revelation that could change the balance of power in the city.
